Geitodoris planata research project

September 4, 2003
From: Peter H. van Bragt

Hello Bill and all forum readers and participants.

As mentioned in an eartlier message, there has been a recent and remarkable introduction of Geitodoris planata in the Dutch coastal waters. Together with a Belgium research group, we are initiating a research project, based on DNA typing, on this species. For this project we have collected specimens from the Dutch coast, and we are now urgently looking for reference material from all over the European coast and if possible from beyond the European coast too.

Therefore I would like to post the following request: We would like to get in touch with as many sports divers and marine biologists who could help us with collecting Geitodoris planata specimens. You may contact me by e-mail [address below] for further details.

When this project comes to publishable results we will ofcourse aknowledge all support in the relevant publications and publish a summary of results on the Sea Slug Forum.

Best regards and thank you all in advance for your help,
Peter H. van Bragt
